Android: They say you make time for the people most important to you, but if you're busy and could use a hand keeping track of those important people, NextCall for Android gets the job done. The app keeps track of the last time you called your contacts, lets you set how often you want to stay in touch, and reminds you when it's time to call them again.

NextCall is free, and is designed for people who have a tough time staying in touch, whether it's with friends, business connections, or current customers. After all, part of building a professional (or personal) network is to make sure you stay in touch with the people that matter to you, even if you're busy and otherwise engaged.

Once installed, NextCall ranks your contact list by last-called, but if you're like me and have a lot of contacts, you can break it into business and personal groups so you only see the people you want to speak to regularly. From there, you can set how often you'd like to be reminded to call someone, and the app handles the rest, popping up a push notification when you should call your client, new sales prospect, or your mother.
